7 Poll Suggestions: Best War Movies of the Decade (1950s-2010s) (6/7 live)

War is hell and these films showed us exactly why. The following films either took place during wartime, showed us ways in which the war affected others or immersed us directly into the horrors on the battlefield.

I agree, Pencho! It's funny, a lot of my 2010s-related poll suggestions still seem to be floating around in GS, I wonder if the admins are waiting until closer to the end of the decade to make these go live... that would make sense.

I tried to pick based on a mix of the movie's lasting influence, relevance, cultural importance, and how it was received by the audiences of their day, in relation to their own lives or experiences in war.
